Luca Pretolesi

不用贅述 Best Masterclass Ever.

兩年前看puremix找到唯一一個做電音混音的影片，當時震撼不已，超多充滿創新的作法，直接有效的workflow，跟許多傳統大師的作法可以說是完全不同，這兩年我自己也用他的方式來混音，每次做到懷疑人生時就回去重看他的教學影片應該4-5次。然後也找他做個stereo/stem mastering過幾次，所以第一個腦海中適合請來的大師就是Luca了。
本來以為他會是一個兇狠的義大利人（上次去英國錄音室老闆很像黑手黨的律師，不能在錄音室打卡，常開玩笑他Live room旁邊有dead room...)結果友善到頂天，吃什麼都說超好吃（除了豆腐乳，吃完不發一語狂喝飲料），對於教學真的是非常進階的觀念但是都解釋的很有條理，相信有參加的人一定是充實到腦袋要直接爆炸。
第一天講用Jolin的玫瑰少年從頭開始講mixing，第二天則是用J Balvin跟Bruno Martini的歌講stem mastering及stereo mastering,跟傳統mastering真的差異超級多，Luca也解釋了怎麼分辨不好的mastering 也工商服務介紹了很多他自己的plug-in，這兩天也感受到他對於教學分享極大的熱情，剛結束義大利的workshop，緊接著又要去巴西開製作課程，明年在Las Vegas他自己的Studio DMI也有開workshop，真的非常佩服。下個月會去找他做album mastering真是非常期待，因為他說要好好招待我，而且對本次講座Luca也是讚不絕口，長達九個月的規劃終於劃下完美句點。

Pioneer A Financial Life on Ethereum with A Non-custodial Banking Replacement by Mel Gelderman 在以太坊上開拓無需銀行託管的新金融生活

On the first day of 2019 Taipei Crosslink, the CEO of Monolith- Mel Gelderman gave a speech on their Monolith Ethereum Wallet + Tokencard and how people are starting to know and embrace Blockchain technology in our daily life, not for gambling or fraud, but for the real positive changes it can bring to the world!

Everything dates back to 2015 when Taipei Ethereum Meetup was merely a small group of people… Mel started off the speech with the memory of him stepping into the Ethereum ecosystem!

Story-telling time!

A brief description of Monolith

Monolith is a decentralised banking alternative on Ethereum, with its current business area in Europe. There are two main products: Monolith app is a contract wallet to transfer cryptocurrency to fiat money; Tokencard is a the debit Visa card that anyone can use just like a normal Visa card.

The Status Quo

Monolith has been through the FCA Sandbox in UK. However, AML(Anti-Money Laundering) and KYC(Know Your Customer) are policies Monolith has to comply with.

AML and KYC can be achieved by simply looking into the origin of the cryptocurrency or tokens, as everything on Ethereum is there, open and transparent: if an address is known to be of illegal source, banning it solves the problem.

Currently, there are already more than 1000 users using Monolith Wallet and Tokencard to cover daily expenditure!

TKN Token: Be our own bank!

Though the topic of TKN wasn’t brought up in the speech, TKN plays a crucial role in the ambition of Monolith: to return the interest of depositing money from banks to users. For more information: CLICK!.

If you’re interested in such ambition, also check out: Compound!

Demo Time

Mel demonstrated how to use their Monolith Ethereum Wallet. During the demo, there’s an anecdote really amused everyone:

The transaction time on Ethereum is surprisingly not really longer than the time on Visa lol

Apart from the above evidence that blockchain is rising ;) Here are a few notes about Monolith Wallet worth mentioning:

Monolith Wallet is a contract wallet with a recovery mechanism, which solves the problem of usual wallets that there is no way to get back your assets on blockchain once the private key is known to the attacker.

Whitelisted addresses are specific addresses not bounded by daily spend limit, and cannot be modified afterwards. Combining the two, even if an attacker gets to know the private key, the attacker can only transfer up to the daily spend limit, and the owner can transfer the remaining assets to the whitelisted addresses.

Monolith is also working on another recovery mechanism to deal with the situation of losing your phone. Stay tuned!

Monolith Tokencard also has every mechanism one needs for a normal debit card: freezing and unfreezing the card, reporting lost card, etc.

The workflow of using Monolith:

Decide the amount of cryptocurrency for exchange -> Decide the targetted fiat currency -> Wait for transaction confirmations on both Ethereum and Visa -> Success! This is now the debit card with money to spend :)

To wrap up this section, Monolith is the purest DeFi you can imagine! — Mel

Future Goal

Back in the days, it’s impossible to live solely on a Bitcoin wallet, as the exchange between cryptocurrency and real-world currencies was never easy.

However, with Monolith Wallet right now, the blockchain technology is mature enough for people to rely on the blockchain solution for daily payments, rather than trusting in banks to deal with our money.

It’s not hard to imagine that in the future, with the mass adoption of the blockchain technology, we might be able to receive cryptocurrency as salary and pay many things to anyone in every corner of the world with only a single wallet and a few clicks on your phone!

Questions

1. When or if it’s possible for Monolith to be available in Taiwan?

South Korea may be the first place for Monolith in Asia. Taiwan is on the list for sure, and hopefully, Monolith will be available by the next time when Mel visits Taiwan ;)

2. What is Monolith’s opinions on anonymity and privacy?

AML and KYC are the agreement Monolith made with Visa and FCA. However, Monolith is considering issuing a token to compensate users for going through these policies!

Conclusion

Mel’s is definitely one of the most inspiring speeches: Monolith and Tokencard visualize the dream that blockchain technology can really help make our society a more decentralised place and reduce the risk that we have always been staking on the centralised institutions!

In the end, I’d like to quote a line from Mel to summarize the speech and also his enthusiasm towards blockchain and Ethereum:

We are on the cusp of the most exciting moment in Ethereum since its creation!

Special thanks to Mel Gelderman for the friendly and patient feedback on my questions and recommending me COMPOUND!!! also, to Yahsin Huang for reviewing and her helpful advices and as usual to Chih-Cheng Liang for organizing the TEM column:)

「Henry Sir，DSE2020幾時開始準備最好？」
答案：宜家開始。

係，當你係考試前一刻先覺醒，
你連準備嘅機會都沒有。

人生好多野都係講timing。
好多人考得唔好其實唔係蠢，
係plan得唔好、放錯重點、太遲發力。

「點解明明有心去溫LS，都讀得唔好？」

一般人嘅溫書策略，係受制於平時嘅教學進度。
老師今日教單元一，你就溫單元一
教到邊溫到邊。

咁呢種「見步行步」嘅溫書策略，有咩唔好？

第一，你肯定溫唔切書。
因為絕大部分學校都教唔切書，
如果你跟學校進度，
去到臨考之前三個月先教完，
基本上你就係得返最後三個月時間消化，
喂大佬，你pick up得黎都入唔到腦啦。
唔好唔記得，你仲有其他科要溫。

第二，你會好容易迷失。
見步行步嘅溫習方法，
係幫唔到你去睇到個大picture，
好多同學好勤力背point，但你好快就會自我質疑：究竟我投資左時間溫呢堆嘢，考試有咩用？

咁又冇D比較efficient嘅方法？
有的，你可以試下「從結果開始」

我們建議你面對什麼考試，
都應該從result開始睇返轉頭，
summarize返究竟有咩係當日需要表演的伎倆，
先看一看考試當日你要做的關鍵workflow
然後再鎖定關鍵能力值，刻意訓練。

咁即是點？
以LS呢科為例，當你睇番pastpaper卷一，
主要係玩數據和資料運用、臨場拆解、用考官畀你嘅材料去拆解考官設計嘅題目
咁請問，你仲會唔會將「背point 背data 背example」作為你溫習嘅主線？

咁你可能會話，卷二呢？
卷二唔係需要example咩？
係啊，咁但係你覺得漁翁撒網咁大包圍死背，
最後有幾多%嘅effort係可以轉變為分數？
用到出黎嘅機率大唔大先？

當你開始投放時間去溫書，唔可以唔講回報率。
因為時間係每一個考生最稀缺嘅resources，
錢是無法買到時間。

所以話，「結果」決定「方向」，
如果睇唔到「終點」，就睇唔到「重點」。

另外要提提你：
「通識冇你想像中咁善良，唔好輕敵」

通識一直被視為「二奶科」「吹水科」但實際上考評局比你想像中陰險，
包括近年越來越多變的題型設計，越來越偏怪的議題，
還有你最唔想見到嘅政治題回歸。

其實考卷設計想傳達一個訊息：
HKEAA唔expect你hea玩通識，因為出題考官並冇諗過遷就你嘅水平。

90%考生低估這一科，
一味以為自己已經好勤力睇issue刨範文
直到落場一刻，
先發現3年嘅準備係幫唔到自己解決眼前嘅題目

GG過後，報仇要等下年，
人生值得花咁長時間玩考試遊戲嗎？

好啦，入正題，如果你考2020通識，你呢一刻應該要點做？

你首先需要的是：
一張由2019年5月到2020年4月的 《全年溫習時間表 》

全年溫習時間表有什麼用？
1. 分析DSE 2020前的4個進步階段和關鍵突破點
2. 告訴你不同階段需要達成的任務和部署
3. 分析一般考生的集體行為和心理盲點
4. 教你自修通識的捷徑
5. 給你一個清晰的作戰藍圖、溫習方向和deadline

新年快樂! 2019第一條片會係一個新嘗試 我用咗大概一年時間終於establish到一個好effective既cover workflow - 只要三日就搞掂! 希望我既方法會幫到想玩cover既人啦 歡迎係comments到問任何唔明既問題黎緊會開始出教學片 可以既我都會do my best to explain? 小妹盡量啦!❤️
